   Would it be possible to compare the sorting performance of this pull request 
with the main branch by modifying the test sets in the description of 
[#6163](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/6163) with different 
values of `K`? 
   
   I am interested in these tests because we are reintroducing per-batch 
sorting (for TopK), which was noted as a source of inefficiency in 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/6163#issuecomment-1529002495:
   > The cost of sorting and copying all the values an additional time far 
outweighs any cache locality effects.
   
   By analyzing the results of the suggested tests, we can determine whether we 
need to implement simple heuristics to determine when to use eager sorting (if 
`K` is similar to `batch_size`) or if the performance improvement in #6163 is 
mainly due to the adaptive sorting algorithm over index-based sorting, and thus 
eager sorting will not cause performance regression.
